Shopedia has three main pages – Featured, Popular and Used pages. A post create floating button, lets you create new posts. Navigation bar - that lets you filter the posts and gives access to your profile. For each post, you would have the ability to comment, like posts, mark them as favorites, share on Facebook, and thank Shopedia members who help you with good shopping suggestions.
How it Works:
Shopedia’s Featured Page will consist of deals that are being discussed, liked the most and perhaps the best deals that the community thinks there can be. The Popular page consists of deals when someone creates a post. All the deals Featured page may once start from Popular page but not all Popular Page deals make it to the Featured page. Used page is mostly for the used and refurbished goods that may interest some of the members of the community. The used page posts, no matter how popular, will not make it to the popular or Featured page.
Each post in the Featured, Popular and Used page displays, the number of thumbs up, thumb downs and comments count. It also features the price, and an image of the product.
Users can browse through the deals without out registering or without logging in to the profiles. However, if the user wants to create a post, like, dislike or comment, he or she has to registered or logged in to the application.
The navigation icon on the top left corner of the app gives access to the category of the post. There are many different category of posts that can be filtered upon. The Navigation also gets the user access to the user profile, posts from the user and a sign out option.
The Floating button on the bottom right corner is for creating the post. Clicking the button will open a new screen where the user will have to enter the details of the post such as what the product is what the price is, why the product should be considered, what coupon codes are available and such. The screen has validations which the user will have to clear before clicking on the create post button.
The Application features custom Gallery, camera and photo viewing functionality that further enhances the appeal towards the product under discussion.
Clicking on any post from any of the 3 main pages of the application will open the post with the complete details about the product. The post display page will have the complete details of the page, description of the product and Product-Pedia that would have information about the product. The Get Deal button would directly take the users to the shopping page where the product can be purchased.
The page features like, dislike, favorite buttons which keeps the buzz for the post and more people can make use of the offer. The application also features the Facebook share feature which can help share the deal on your wall!
